The past three weeks have been crazy for us, Brittany wrapped up the school year, and went right back into author mode to finish up the new children's book she's been working on. She had a few readings at local book stores and continued working on her third screenplay. Brittany keeps writing these awesome screenplays but she won't shop them around to anyone; no matter how hard I nag or insist, she won't budge, but each one gets better than the previous one.

While Brittany has been busy, I've been swamped with Aunty Snixx and loving every minute of it. Since competing in the meatloaf competition, and coming in first place, business has almost tripled for me. Luckily I have Aliana, and Angelina to help me out since Bash hasn't been the happiest with my new workload. I don't want to leave him upstairs in his crib all day so I usually strap him to me while I bake or keep him in the kitchen downstairs with us. While he's okay for a little while, he starts to get irritated and wants my attention. Brittany comes down and works as often as she can, but can't get much work down while we are baking, I like to think it's because she snacks the whole time, but she claims it's because we tend to get a little loud, which we do some days. I've made a ton of special occasion cakes, catered a few small luncheons at some offices, my cookie dough demand has increased at the stores we have it in, and I'm selling more cookies, cupcakes, brownies, and cakes than ever.

Sebastian is almost five months, and growing into his little personality more and more every day. He can sit up by himself up, as long as we spread his legs into a V, and set a toy in front of him to kind of reach for and play with or with pillows behind him bracing him a little, so Brittany ordered this pillow donut looking thing, that helps him sit up without our help. He babbles more to himself and plays with the toys on his bouncer and crib more intently. One of the biggest developments is him reaching for us when he wants to be held by one of us specifically. We first noticed when I was holding him the other day, while we watched TV, I noticed he kept squirming, I glanced over and saw Brittany making faces at him to make him laugh, suddenly he extended his arms out to her, which shocked both us, and made Brittany's whole day, she quickly grabbed him and hugged him as he left his version of wet kisses on her face, aka he drooled all over her.

While our family life and careers are doing amazing, I miss my wife. It sounds crazy considering I see Brittany all day everyday, I mean she's the first person I see every morning, and her blue eyes are the last thing I see at night, since Sebastian now sleeps through the night, but with our busy schedules, we are usually exhausted, and fall asleep quickly, tangled in one another.

But that all changes today, we are headed to Virginia for the next week and a half to relax and kick back. We are staying in the Pierce family beach house with Quinn, Lio, and Brittany's cousin Matthew, and his wife Rebecca, and her cousin Jeremy and his husband, Clinton. Brittany's uncles and aunts have a time share just up the street, so Brittany's mom will be there as well. So I was able snag a date night for the two of us, since her mom screamed yes when I asked her to watch Sebastian for a few hours for us one night, so we could have some alone time.

"Santana, are you listening to me?" Brittany asks with a frown when I snap out of my day dream and face her.

"Sorry bee, what did you say?" I respond.

"I said, we are almost there, like ten minutes away from the house, do you want to drop of our luggage and then hit the grocery store or stop on the way there." She repeats her question.

"Let's drop off the luggage first." I answer as I turn to look at Sebastian, who is fast asleep in his car seat. "He did good for his first road trip." I smile at Brittany as I take a sip of my lemonade.

"Yeah, he did." Brittany smiles in return. "Granted he's been sleep the whole time, but so have you."

"Hey, I've been up for the past hour and a half." I laugh.

"You've been daydreaming, that doesn't count." She teases.

"You were in my daydream, does that make it better?" I ask while lifting her hand and kissing her finger tips.

"Oh la la, I love when you dream about me." She smiles. "Last night you did too."

"And how do you know that?" I ask her as I think back to the super sexy and very wet dream I had about Brittany.

"You moaned my name loudly, and grabbed my breast in your sleep." Brittany laughs.

I blush and glance at Sebastian. "Busted." I nod.

"I was hoping you woke up and sex attacked me like you used to when you were pregnant." Brittany laughs as she turns down a residential street and pulls into a driveway. "This is it, the Pierce family beach house."

"This place is huge." I tell her as I look out the windshield at the three story house through the windshield.

"You'll love it." She beams as she gets out of the truck and opens the back door to pick up Sebastian, who immediately cuddles in her chest and grabs the collar of her shirt to hold while looking around sleepily.

I grab his diaper bag and follow Brittany up the steps and in the house. My eyes widen at the huge foyer, you would think nothing the Pierce family owns would shock me anymore, but it seems like everything new that Brittany shows me that her family owns is crazy fancy.

"My grandparents designed, built, and decorated this house themselves." Brittany states proudly. "So when my dad and siblings were younger they spent summers here, right on the beach."

"Awesome." I smile as I look up at the cathedral ceiling, and notice that every level of the house has a balcony where you can look out and down at the foyer.

Brittany is still holding Sebastian tightly with one arm, and grabs my hand with the other. "I'll give you the tour and then we can pick which bedroom we want for the next ten days."

We walk through room after room, which is completely decked out with expensive artwork, flat screen TVs, amazing furniture and color schemes. The house is just gorgeous, and the best part is the backyard is the ocean. Brittany and I are staying an extra four days or so after everyone else just to relax, and I can already picture us sitting out on a warm night, relaxing to the sounds of the ocean, I seriously can't wait. Ashley's party got cancelled, so we decided to use today as our travel day.

"What about this one, cupcake?" She asks as we walk into an aqua color themed room. "It has a private bathroom, and it's big enough for the crib."

"Every room is amazing, baby, it doesn't matter which one we pick." I tell her as I grab Sebastian, who is rubbing his eyes and licking his lips.

"This is going to be a great trip." Brittany nods before kissing me on the cheek. "Let's get unpacked and set up the travel crib so we can get to the store."

"Okay." I reply as I sit on the bed when I see Sebastian smacking his lips again. "I'm going to feed him, can you start grabbing the luggage."

"I thought you pumped like 5 bottles this morning," Brittany asks as I lay Sebastian on the bed so I could lift my shirt.

"I did, but I want to save those for later." I smile at her.

"Ok." Brittany shrugs. "Be right back."

Once I'm ready, I lift Sebastian back to my chest and smile when he starts to nurse. I look out the huge bay windows and stare out at the ocean. "Your momma is getting you a wonderful life, Bash. You don't know how lucky you are. Or should I say how lucky we are that you picked us to be your parents."

Brittany walks in ten minutes later with our purses and Sebastian's travel crib. She sets our purses on the bed and pops the crib up next to the bed. She then goes in the hall and comes back with our suitcases and unrolls one of Sebastian's play mats on the floor in front of the couch that's in the room.

"I called Mathias, and let him know we made it." Brittany tells me.

"Ok, does he have Brownie and Chef down in his apartment or is he staying in the penthouse? You know what, we have food, never mind I know the answer to that already." I ask her as Sebastian starts to cough. "Slow down, you're the only that eats this, you don't have to rush, these are yours, mijo." I tell him while rubbing his chest as he takes a breather before holding him back to my chest.

Brittany laughs. "He's renting those from me." She winks. "It looks like my uncle had the fridge stocked for us already, so we don't need to go to the store, unless you want something specific."

I shake my head and run my fingers through Sebastian's hair. "I know you're tired from driving the whole way, let's just relax. I'll make us some sandwiches to eat, and I'll cook dinner later tonight. We can always go shopping tomorrow with everyone to see what we all want."

"Everyone comes tomorrow afternoon, right?" Brittany asks as she takes her sneakers off and sits on the bed next to me, and slowly lies back.

I rest my hand on her thigh and rub it slowly. "Yeah, Rebecca emailed me last night and said they'll be here around three tomorrow afternoon. Clinton texted me and said they'll be here sometime tomorrow evening, and with Lio and Quinn, who knows what time they'll make it here. I think Lio is working a half day, so probably later in the evening." Sebastian stops sucking and takes a deep breath. I wait to make sure he's done, since sometimes he'll realize he's isn't full yet, or as Brittany calls it, he goes back for seconds. "Is there chicken breast down there?" I pat Brittany's thigh. "Bee, is there chicken breast?" I ask again when she doesn't answer. I turn and glance at her and see she's asleep.

I fix my shirt and lie Sebastian next to Brittany. He reaches for her face, and pokes her in the eye, causing me to laugh and Brittany to wake up. "Ow." She smiles as Sebastian smiles at her, he reaches for her face again, so she pretends to eat his fingers, he pulls his hand back and laughs.

"Take a nap, bee, I'll unpack for us." I tell her.

"Lay down with me." She states while opening her arms wide.

I pick Sebastian up and set him in the travel crib, and toss some toys in with him. He yawns and kicks before fussing slightly. I can tell he's still tired so I lean down and rub his stomach while singing softly to him as his eyes start to flutter shut. I then take my shoes off and lie in bed next to Brittany, cuddling into her side.

She kiss me on the lips and holds me tightly while she slides us higher in the bed. "Take a nap with me." She mumbles against my neck, where she hides her face and tangles our legs. I kiss the top of her head and rub her back as I feel her heart beat slow down and she drifts to sleep.


Sebastian and I are playing in the middle of the living room on the floor when Brittany finally comes downstairs from her nap. "Look who's up, Bash." I say while pointing to Brittany, who waves exaggeratedly at him with a big smile, he immediately smiles back at her.

She quickly lays on the carpet with us and leans over to kiss me. "Sorry I slept for so long, it's almost six."

"Don't worry about it." I tell her while setting the plush ball back in front of Sebastian, who is lying on his stomach, kicking his legs.

Brittany kisses the top of his head and taps him on the shoulder. "Hey you." She smiles when he turns to face her. "Hello." She smiles while moving the toy around in front of him, but he lost interest in it the moment he locked eyes with Brittany and starts to reach for her face instead. She lays on her back and picks him up, so she is holding him above her head, slowly lowering him to kiss his face over and over.

I crawl over and lie next to her and rest my head on her shoulder. "I know you are the queen of surprises in our house but I have one for you tonight."

Brittany turns and looks at me. "What are you talking about?"

"I planned a romantic night for us." I tell her with a smile. "It starts in 3 minutes." I add while glancing at my watch.

Brittany laughs. "So is Sebastian apart of the romantic night, because he's very much awake right now."

"No, it's just us two." I wink as I kiss her softly on the lips.

Brittany just stares at me. "Ummmm."

I giggle at her and kiss her on the neck as Sebastian reaches for my face, I lean up so he can grab my nose and laugh at him as his eyes widen when I grab his nose at the same time.

"Don't let mami take your nose." Brittany laughs at him as she laces our fingers together.

There's a knock at the door, followed by the door opening and footsteps. I train my eyes on Brittany to watch her facial reaction when she hears the voice.

"Hey Brittany." Mrs. Pierce smiles.

"Mom!" Brittany screeches as she sits up quickly and stands up with Sebastian in her arms. I follow suit and stand up as well

"Hello girls." She beams as she hugs both of us. "Look at my grandson." She says with tears in her eyes. "You are so handsome." She breathes when Brittany rubs Sebastian's stomach and he smiles at her.

Brittany hands him to her and starts reaching for her face, she kisses his fingers. "Hey sweetheart." She smiles while rubbing his back as the two of them stare at each other with smiles. She plants kisses all over his face, causing him to kick, as he smiles and laughs since she is. "Look at this curly hair, and these freckles." She states.

"What are you doing here mom?" Brittany asks as we all move to sit on the couch. "You are supposed to come tomorrow and you are staying at the time share with Aunt Holly and all the old people." Mrs. Pierce frowns at the word old so Brittany quickly corrects herself. "I mean older family members."

"Well, your wife called in a favor that I couldn't resist." She laughs while winking at me. "I get to hang out with my grandson, that I don't see nearly enough, and my daughters get a night to themselves."

"You!" Brittany smiles while turning to face me and kissing me on the lips firmly. "I love you."

"You'll love me more after tonight." I tell her. "I love you so much, honeybee, you know that." I add before kissing her again.

"Well I better get going." Mrs. Pierce smiles as she stands up with Sebastian.

Brittany instantly frowns. "So you're taking him?" She asks frantically.

"Just to the timeshare house, honey, you know it's just around the corner." Mrs. Pierce replied. "I'm bringing him back in a few hours."

Brittany nods while rubbing Sebastian's back. I walk up to her and place my hand on her lower back. "Baby, it's just for a few hours, but if you aren't comfortable..." I start but she shakes her head.

"It's okay, he'll be perfectly fine with my mom." She says softly. "We, um, we have to leave him with a sitter at some point, the first one should be family."

I grab Brittany's hand and lead her to the corner of the living room, and grab her other hand. "Honeybee, if you aren't okay with this, I understand. I just thought we needed some alone time, and this was perfect since your mom doesn't get to see him a lot, and yeah I probably didn't think this through."

Brittany silences my lips with hers. "It's okay, whether he's five months or five years old it's going to be hard for me to leave him with anyone for any amount of time."

"I know." I tell her as she rests her forehead on mine. "He'll be back at midnight."

"Ok." She nods against my head and kisses me quickly.

I smile at her and lead us back over to Mrs. Pierce, who is sitting down, Sebastian is on her lap facing her while she sings to him in French one of the songs that Brittany sings to him often. His eyes are wide as he stares at her while clutching to her sweater tightly. She pauses the song and taps him on the nose, he blinks slowly at her before a huge smile covers his face and he reaches for her face while laughing.

"I think he'll be okay." Brittany tells me while standing behind me and resting her chin on my shoulder as she snakes her arms around my waist.

Mrs. Piece starts singing again, starting the song over, she lifts Sebastian's hands to make him clap along, he stares at his hands before looking back up at her and back down to his hands, while smiling. He looks so happy with his grandmother, and I can see the tears in hers as she plays with him and it reminds me of all the times I loved going to my abuela's house.

"Yeah he will be." I nod. "Why don't you go with your mom to get him settled?"

"Ok." Brittany nods.

I walk to the side of the couch and pick up Sebastian's bag and hand it to Brittany, along with his bouncer. "Your mom said the time share has a crib?"

Brittany nods. "Yeah, there's always a crib at one of the houses. It's probably from Caroline, she was here last with her husband and kids."

I pick up Sebastian's jacket and walk it to him, Mrs. Pierce hands him to me and I walk over to the opposite couch to have a little time with him. "Ok mijo, you're going to spend a little time with your grandma tonight, but mami and momma will be right around the corner." I explain while putting his jacket on him. "G Ma Pierce is going to take really good care of you, she took really good care of momma and look how awesome she turned out." I add while glancing up at Brittany, who quickly blushes. I cuddle him to my chest and kiss all over his face before standing up and handing him to Brittany.

"Santana, if you want him back any sooner, just call me or you girls can come right over." Mrs. Pierce tells me.

"I know mom, I'm sure the three of us will be fine." I nod.

"I'll back in a few minutes." Brittany tells me as she kisses me on the cheek and grabs Sebastian's bag.

"His bottles!" I say loudly for some reason as I run to the kitchen and bring back the insulated lunch bag full of the bottles I pumped this morning.


After Brittany went with her mom to get Sebastian settled. I sprung into action, getting our romantic evening planned. I cooked earlier when Brittany was asleep, so I check the oven to make sure our dinners were still okay. I then grab the blanket I found in the hall closet and lay it out on the sand behind the house. I then take the flower petals and sprinkle them on the blanket and around forming a big heart. I place the champagne bucket in the middle of the blanket, and grab our dinners and set them out, covering with them with foil. After Sebastian nursed this afternoon when he woke up I pumped a few more bottles so I could enjoy a glass of bubbly with Brit, so I'm super excited. I light the fire pit and grab the sparklers I found in the basement with the other fourth of July decorations, and stick them all around the blanket. I grab the champagne flutes out of the freezer and set them on the blanket and set a strawberry in the bottom before looking around at the set up and nodding in approval to myself.

"Sanny?" I hear Brittany call out.

I run to the door and meet her before she walks further out in the yard. "Hey baby, Bash okay with your mom?"

Brittany nods. "Yeah, Aunt Holly is in town too, so they are having tummy time with him to tire him out before my mom gives him a bath and a bottle so he can go to sleep."

"Ok." I smile as I stare at her.

"Did you want to go to dinner?" She asks while wrapping me in a hug and kissing my forehead.

"Dinner is already taken care of." I shrug. "I told you I had a surprise for you, so close your eyes."

"You're leading me?" She asks nervously.

I smile at her. "Yeah, why?"

"Last time you tried to lead me somewhere you missed a step and we both fell." Brittany laughs.

"Oh yeah." I frown. "Well that won't happen this time." I laugh. "Take your shoes off."

Brittany blinks slowly before smiling and taking her shoes off. I then stand behind her and wrap one hand around her waist and the other over her eyes. "Okay, right foot first." I tell her as we start to walk slowly to the set up I have. "Ok, now I'm going to guide you sit down."

"Oh shit." Brittany giggles.

"Lean back on me." I tell her as I slowly lower us to the ground, I slide from under Brittany's lap and sit next to her. "Okay, open your eyes."

Brittany opens her eyes and I blush when they instantly widen as she looks around. "Sanny..."

"Do you like it?" I ask her.

She nods and turns to face me. "This is so perfect, baby, so perfect." She leans over and kisses me quickly.

I take the foil off of dinner, revealing the spicy honey glazed chicken sandwiches I made us, with grilled pineapple, and a corn salsa on the side. "I didn't make anything fancy for dinner, so I hope the chicken sandwiches are okay."

"I love everything you cook, so it's fine." Brittany smiles.

Brittany and I spend the next hour talking and laughing at everything we could think of while eating and feeding each other dinner. As the sun started to set, Brittany pulled me in her lap and held me tightly as we watched the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. We talked about Sebastian, and called her mom to check on him, she told us she was currently rocking him to sleep, after he played his heart out with Aunt Holly, who like Brit, is the queen of funny faces. Mrs. Pierce said he drank his whole bottle, which relaxed me, since I'm used to doing his last feeding of the night, and I wasn't sure how he would take to a bottle, since he's kind of particular about when he takes a bottle.

I cuddle close in Brittany's lap and rest my forehead in the crook of her neck, she starts to rub my thigh soothingly with one hand and my arm with the other. "Are you cold, you have goosebumps?" She asks.

"No, I'm okay." I tell her. "It's so relaxing here." I mumble against her neck.

"I've always loved coming here as a kid." Brittany states. "My grandfather would bring me every summer, we would go to the Mount Trashmore Carnival, he would let me fill up on all the junk food I could eat, we would play all the games, ride all the rides." She smiles as recalls the memories. I love listening to Brittany talk about her grandfather, the bond they had sounds amazing. I hope Bash has a great relationship with my dad like that as well. I would love for him to have a bond with Mr. Pierce as well, but even though Brittany has sent him a ton a pictures of Sebastian, including him in a onesie that says Pierce Man, her father still has virtually ignored her, which is starting to piss me off now.

"Well, we can create the same amazing memories with Bash." I smile.

"475." Brittany laughs.

"Are you still keeping count of how many times I call him Bash?" I laugh as I sit up to look in her eyes, which are now twinkling from the moonlight.

Brittany nods and smiles. "476."

"Dork." I blush before kissing her softly.

"I'm you're dork." She winks.

"That's right." I nod. "Are you ready for part two of the surprise?"

"This is more than enough." She tells me while rubbing my thighs again.

"I know, but I have a little more planned for you." I smile before kissing and standing up. I pick up a long candle and stick in the fire pit to catch the flame, before walking to each of the sparklers and lighting them one by one.

"Whoa." Brittany smiles as she looks around and see she's now surrounding by the colorful lights. "What's going on?" She asks.

I clear my throat and smile at her as I pull out my phone and turn to an instrumental track. "I don't really sing to you anymore, there's no real reason, I just don't sing as much anymore, unless it's a nursery rhyme to Bash now, and yes that's 477." I tease. "But tonight I want to sing a song to you. I know this is one of your favorite songs, one our our favorite songs." I stated. "I love you so much, Brit, so much that it still scares me a little after five years of marriage. I really think you were made just for me, you're perfect to me, we argue like any other couple, but we love and we love hard. When I'm around you, you're all I see, all that matters, you'll always, always come first to me, baby."

Brittany nods and wipes a tear from her eye. "You know I feel the same way, Sanny."

"I know." I whisper to her as I press play and the intro to the song starts.

I stare in Brittany's eyes and start to harmonize softly before singing the lyrics.

You fix your make up, just so
Guess you don't know, that you're beautiful
Try on every dress that you own
You were fine in my eyes a half hour ago

And if your mirror won't make it any clearer I'll
Be the one to let you know

I smile as I sing the next part and start to dance slowly while pointing to her.

Out of all of the girls
You're my one and only girl
Ain't nobody in the world tonight

I point to sky before opening my arms wide for effect.

All of the stars, you make them shine like they were ours
Ain't nobody in the world but you and I
You and I
Ain't nobody in the world but you and I

I notice more tears in her eyes and blink quickly to stop my own from falling as I continue to dance while harmonizing to the music. I step closer to Brittany and kneel in front of her, sitting back on my thighs.

You stop the room when we walk in
Spotlight's on everybody's staring
Tell all of these boys they're wasting their time
Stop standing in line, 'cause you're all mine

I motion over her body and point to myself with a wink, causing her to smile and nod in agreement.

And this evening I won't let the feeling die
I never wanna leave your side

Out of all of the girls
You're my one and only girl
Ain't nobody in the world tonight

I lean forward and peck her on the lips before standing up and spinning around while singing my heart out to Brittany and pointing to the start in the sky.

All of the stars you make them shine like they were ours
Ain't nobody in the world but you and I
You and I
Ain't nobody in the world

You keep wondering if you're what I'm wanting
You don't even have to try

I stop spinning and focus on Brittany again as I once again kneel in front of her and smile when she starts singing with me softly, tears streaming from her eyes.

All of the stars, they don't shine brighter than you are
Ain't nobody in the world but you and I
You and I
You and I
Nobody in the world tonight
Ain't nobody in the world but you and I

"I love you so much." I tell her as I wipe her tears away. "It's you and I against the world, bee."

Brittany nods and pulls me into a hug. "You and I." She sniffles. "John Legend always has the best songs for us." She laughs.

"Yeah he does." I agree before kissing her. Brittany deepens the kiss while pulling me to straddler her. I wrap my legs around her waist and hug her tightly. "Thank you for the wonderful and amazing life you've given me."

"We are building this life together." Brittany corrects me. "It's not just me, you play a major role in what we have, what we are building, how we are able to provide for Sebastian."

"Ok." I nod before we kiss softly again and rest my head on her shoulder.

We stay wrapped in each others arms in silence before Brittany raises her shoulder to get my attention and initiates a soft kiss on my lips.


After sitting outside, me straddling her while laughing and talking for another hour or so, we cleaned up everything outside and double checked that I cleaned everything up in the kitchen after cooking. We called Mrs. Pierce, well we Facetimed her, to check on Sebastian, and saw him fast asleep in her arms, seriously the cutest sight. Brittany and I agreed that it would be okay if he stayed there for the night, and we could wake up early to go pick him up first thing in the morning. We took a long, hot shower together before lying in bed facing one another, completely naked.

Brittany slides closer to me and runs her hand up and down my back slowly while looking deep in my eyes, she presses her lips against mine, humming into the kiss. I smile at her when the kiss broke and ran my fingers through her hair, lightly scratching her scalp in the process. "What's on your mind?"

"Promise you won't get mad?" She asks.

"I won't." I reply with a slight shake of my head.

"I know it's our first night alone, completely alone in almost five months, and you would think I would want to lick, tease, and please you all night, and feel your tongue all over me as well, but I just want to lay and look at you, and talk." She blushes.

I laugh softly. "Sex has never been our end all and be all, honeybee."

"I know." She nods. "I just thought that maybe you would want to."

"Whatever you want is fine, if you want to have wild, crazy sex...let's do it." I laugh while wiggling my eyebrows at her. "If you want to lay here and just enjoy each other through soft kisses and conversations, that sounds just as amazing." I assure her.

"Okay." Brittany nods. "How about we take a nice, relaxing walk on the beach tomorrow?" She asks while moving even closer to me, so our breasts are smashed against one another, as she tangles our legs. She's so close right now that I practically taste the mint on her breath from just brushing her teeth.

"We can take Sebastian." I smile. "We can strap him to one of us." I add.

"That's exactly what I was thinking." Brittany smiles before trying to hide her yawn. "Can you believe we have basically a five month old?"

I shake my head while closing my eyes tightly. "It feels like just yesterday I was pregnant, and huge." I laugh.

"You were so cute pregnant." Brittany states as she kisses me on the nose.

I blush. "You took such good care of me Brit, I know I was a handful, but you were the perfect wife throughout it all, I was so lucky to have you."

"I love you," Brittany shrugs. "You're my gorgeous wife, that was carrying out perfectly handsome, and amazing son. I would have done anything you asked me to." She laughs.

"Weeelllllll." I drag out as my hand slides down to her butt momentarily. "Can you tell me a poem?"

Brittany nods. "Of course." I watch her close her eyes and take a deep breath, a sign she's thinking. I slowly rub her lower back while she continues to think. I giggle when she starts to mouth some words to herself before her blue eyes open and a smile crosses her face. "Ready?" She asks, I nod quickly as she kisses me softly once more.

A million stars up in the sky
one shines brighter I can't deny
A love so precious a love so true
a love that comes from me to you
The angels sing when you are near
within your arms I have nothing to fear
You always know just what to say
just talking to you makes my day
I love you honey with all of my heart
together forever and never to part.

"That's beautiful, honeybee." I tell her when she's done.

"So are you." She winks.

"Flattery works too." I laugh as I hide my face in her neck and hug her tightly, pressing soft kisses there. Brittany pulls me to lay flush on her and starts to massage my whole body. I rest my hands down other head and make a face at her.

"You always lose." Brittany teases while crossing her eyes.

I cross one eye and stick out my tongue, to which she counters back with flipping her eyelid inside out. "Gross!" I squirm while laughing and closing my eyes quickly. Brittany laughs and holds me tightly before flipping us over and starting to tickle me. "Shit..." I laugh while trying to crawl away. "Bee!" I squeal as I start to scream laughing. "Bee!" I start to try to crawl away but Brittany has me pinned down pretty good and I can't move. She suddenly stops and jumps up before running out of the room. "You are so dead!" I yell as I chase her out of the room. I look back and forth down the long hallway, trying to decide which way to go when a naked ball of blonde sprints past me. I want to chase her but I'm laughing to hard and sink to the ground in tears from laughing. Brittany comes running back and scoops me up bridal style as she jumps into the bedroom.

"I love carrying you over the threshold." She smiles as she kisses me.

"I want to carry you." I tell her after she tosses me on the bed.

"You can't, you're too small." She smiles.

"Bullshit. I can lift you, Brittany."

"Ok, Sanny." Brittany smiles again while laying in bed and sliding under the sheet.

I stand and stare at her. "Brittany, I can lift you."

"I know you can, baby." She nods with a small smile. "Come get in bed with me." I walk to Brittany's side of the bed and bend my knees a few times to get ready. "All the squats you've been doing make your ass look amazing." She smiles as she turns to face me and tries to look around me at my butt.

"Thanks, but I'm not doing squats right now." I tell her as I look over my shoulder at my butt and blush. "I'm going to lift you up."

"Santana."

"Brittany."

"I believe you. I swear I do." She says more seriously. "Don't try to lift me."

"I got this, bee." I tell her full of determination. I slide one arm under her knees, and the other under her back. "Grab on to my neck." Brittany sighs and holds her breath, before grabbing my neck. "What are you doing?"

"Trying to make myself lighter." She states plainly.

I roll my eyes and stand up straight, with her definitely suspended in the air. "Whoa!" I say excitedly. "Told ya."

"I believed you." She laughs. "Now put me down." She adds.

I ignore her and instead turn to carry her to my side of the bed, but in true Santana fashion, I turn too quickly and trip over my own feet. "Shit!" I scream as we fall to the floor, Brittany breaking my fall. "Oh my God! Bee, are you okay, baby?" I ask as I roll off of her. I see her face turning red while she shakes. "Oh God! Oh God!"

"You are such a dork!" She says as her eyes open and I now see that she's laughing. "You always have to one up yourself." She adds as she extends her arms so I can pull her up.

"I'm so sorry." I tell her again while looking over her body to make sure she isn't bruised anywhere.

"I'm fine." She laughs. "It's okay, Sanny." She says while hugging me to put me at ease.

"Ok, let's lay down now, before I seriously injure one of us." I say softly.

"It's okay." Brittany laughs. "Seriously, I'm not mad, it's fine; with a little practice you can carry me over the threshold on our anniversary." She winks before lying down.

I smile brightly, because Brittany seriously always knows how to boost my confidence. I lay back down and wiggle closer to her and kiss her on the cheek after she turns off the lamp and faces me. "Good night beautiful."

Brittany turns my head and catches my lips in a pretty heated kiss. "Good night, Mrs. Pierce."


5am

I wake up to Brittany basically sucking on my neck as her hand glides up and down my back. "Don't leave a mark." I tell her sleepily as I close my eyes again.

"Ok." She replies. "Are you awake?"

"If you want sex, yes. If you want anything else, not yet, baby." I say as I bury my head back in the pillow. "Just a few more minutes."

"Come running with me." She says while kissing a trail down my back. "Just a quick one on the beach, then we can go get Sebastian. I called my mom, and he's still asleep."

I open my eyes again. "Can I have coffee?"

"Already made you some." She smiles as she picks up travel mug and I watch her wave the steam in my direction. I glance at the clock and sigh. "Brit, baby, it's five am."

"I know." She says while standing up. "Come running with me, Sanny."

"Ok." I nod as I sit up and am instantly met with her mouth. "I'm really up now." I tell her as I deepen the kiss. "And so is my libido. I add in a low voice. I move my hands off the bed expecting to feel her soft breasts, but I'm met with spandex or latex or whatever the material of her shirt is, i just know I'm not touching flesh.

"Later, I promise." She tells me before kissing me on the forehead.

"Okay." I yawn as I climb out of bed and go to use the bathroom, when I come back out I see Brittany has clothes set out for me, so I quickly get dressed and head downstairs, with my sneakers in my hand. "Are we gong in the sand?"

"Yeah, no shoes." She nods while sticking two water bottles in a small knapsack, and slinging it on her back. "Ready?"

I take a few more gulps of my coffee and set the bottle in the sink as I follow Brittany out the back door and we start a nice pace jog down the beach. I haven't jogged in a while, so my legs are starting to burn after thirty minutes or so, Brittany notices I slow down and runs in place until I reach her. "Want to call it quits?" She asks. "I don't want you to be sore."

"We can jog back to pick up Bash." I shake my head as I lean down and stretch my legs. Brittany grabs one of the water bottles out and hands it me.

"Drink a little." She tells, while still running in place.

I take the bottle and squirt a little in my mouth before handing it back to her. She squirts some in her mouth before squirting some water over her head and doing the same to me. "Do a few lunges." She tells me while putting the water bottle back.

I stretch a little more and do a few lunges before mimicking the stretches Brittany is doing. "Sorry for slowing you down."

"Never." She shakes her head. "You're doing great." She tells me. "You haven't worked out much since having Bash, but yet you're post pregnancy body is amazing." She winks at me.

I have to agree with her, I haven't worked out a lot since giving birth, I do a lot of yoga, which has helped, and luckily I didn't gain a shitload of weight either. "Ready." I nod to her as we jog the rest of the way to the house, I picture Sebastian, laughing and smiling while he waits for us and it gives me a major adrenaline boost. "Let's race!" I tell Brittany as I take off down the sand, sprinting as fast as I can.
